-mm merge plans

From: Andrew Morton
Date: Wed Mar 22 2006 - 23:54:34 EST



A look at the -mm lineup for 2.6.17:


proc-fix-duplicate-line-in-proc-devices.patch
sys_alarm-unsigned-signed-conversion-fixup.patch
sys_alarm-unsigned-signed-conversion-fixup-fix.patch
validate-and-sanitze-itimer-timeval-from-userspace.patch
validate-and-sanitze-itimer-timeval-from-userspace-fix.patch
fix-scheduler-deadlock.patch
fix-bug-bio_rw_barrier-requests-to-md-raid1-hang.patch

Will merge. Will also submit for 2.6.16.1.

The timer changes address back-incompatibilities with earlier kernels.
This means that 2.6.16's alarm() and setitimer() are, under
unlikely-to-occur circumstances, incompatible with earlier kernels. If
merged into 2.6.16.1 these patches will fix that.
